Do anyone know how many bikes get stolen a year in the UK?
Just reading Danish news and saw an article about bike theft, 70 000 bikes a year gets nicked over there.
Cant decide if i think that is a lot or not so bad.

How many bikes are there in Denmark? 5.5 million population, everyone has one, so that would be 1.2% or one in 83. An average bike has a 1/83 chance of being stolen in any 1 year, though perhaps thieves don't target average bikes.
